Why would a thumbnail have a different behavior based on the type of post?
Between an article and an image? It wouldn’t. For a non-link post, it would go to the thread because there is nowhere else to go.
you agree for a thumbnail that would cause confusion for users with unpredictable behavior since you can't differentiate the two (image or website link).
I am not arguing for this at all. This is the second comment in a row this has happened. In short:
It is clearly a quirk (and unexpected) to click on an image and be sent to a commentary thread.
I think that what you are saying (expandos or lack thereof differentiating the type) is sensible.
What is not sensible UI design or intuitive is when clicking on an image takes one to a comment thread. Full stop.
Full stop.
Thanks for your interesting opinion.
It has been a unique pleasure engaging with you.
